in cmd.exe switch to the drive. Z:
start metricbeat with system module enabled and just diskio metricset
in cmd.exe create some disk io. echo "some long string" > newfile.txt
We do see events for the C: drive, but nothing for the Z: drive.
We do see the following error:

We need to either fix or update the documentation for windows diskio that network drives will not be reported.
